Amy suddenly felt overwhelmed.

Corpse looked back and said, "What's wrong?"

"It's just..." Amy paused. She didn't know what to say. All this had come at her so fast. It seemed like she was supposed to be a great hero, but she know how.

Corpse smiled knowingly and pulled a purple satin draw-string bag out of his pocket. He opened the bag and several different bubbles came out. Then, all of them except for a rosy purple colored bubble and a sickly green color bubble popped. The purple one floated toward Amy and stopped right above her head. The sickly green one floated above Corpse and stopped. Then a bright, stop-light green bubble appeared between Corpse and Amy. There was a "ding" that seemed to come from inside the bubble and then all of the bubbles popped.
